16-Date.
Arianna POV.
I’m going crazy, definitely crazy, I dream about this guy, I see him in my sleep, all the time but that’s not the biggest problem, the problem is I’m falling for him. Maybe I’m just so love deprived, I decided to fall in love with the first person I felt connected to, even if this person was only an imaginary one.
But the bodyguard saw him with me the other day, he said he saw the guy get closer to me and asked if I was okay, I just told him the guy told me that my ears were crooked, that’s all. I lied to him, but he saw him too, that means he’s real, a real person, I’m not making things up, he says he’s not an angel, not my guardian angel for sure, but he’s falling for me and I’m falling for him, the kisses we shared, those were my first time ever.
Dad and papa, don’t allow me to go out with boys or kiss them, they try to get me out on dates, but they are there, they’d only allow me to date someone after they approve to him, not before, they aren’t that good, all the dates ended up with me scaring the other guy, but Scar wasn’t afraid of me, instead, he managed to do something not many could do, he showed me that he’s in charge. I decided to go, on the date, I’m not going to miss my chance, if he’s a real person I want to meet him, to kiss him for real, not just that kiss in the park, I want to see his face, I want to talk to him, to get to know what his real story is, is he really a creature of hell, a monster underneath my bed. But are those things real, I’ll have to check it, we have some books down in the library, I’ve read the one related to vampires growing up, papa wouldn’t allow me to check the big kids’ books saying I’m still too young for those, but I’m an adult now, I’m sure I can find few about monsters.
I left my room in the morning in a great mood now, I want to check the books, but to do so I have to be on good terms with dad and papa, which means to eat my breakfast even if I’m not that hungry, I’ll eat some of the solid food, I wasn’t very hungry for blood, dad says my appetite should be a lot bigger being small and growing up. I skipped to the kitchen, said hi to the baby of the family, Andy, the cutest little boy alive, he’s just a small cute thing, he’s a little, not a real baby, one that uncle Dante, the lord of the house bought on an auction but fell in love with along with most of the house.
“Hi, baby” I say, he hates when I call him so, but I always do it.
“Hi, foxy” he replies, we both sat down to eat our breakfast, we had pancakes, papa made them, trying to get me to eat.
“You look happy today,” dad says, I just shrug, I’m eating and I’m happy, why is he mad at me.
“Let the girl be, James” papa scolds him back, making me smile, I had him on my side, we didn’t agree on a certain time, but I knew I had some time before I got to go to the park and meet with him.
I went to the library room and started to look around, not many of the older ones are here, they’ve read the books or would only come here when they need something, which means the room is all mine. We didn’t have any of the books named “Monsters 101”, but we had a few about creatures of hells, I started to search through those first.
I found a page about the monster from hell that would hunt the earth, I found about demons who loves to mess with people, I found some that t loves to cause nightmares, ones that would scare you. But none were powerful enough to make me dream about them, that’s too strong, that needs a lord, but a lord won’t be here on earth to mess with people, they are too busy for that.
I think what’s hunting me is a real monster, one of the old legends talks about a monster underneath the bed, they are real, all the legends have some of the truth in them. I finally got ready for the date, wearing what he asked me to, I went to the park, I had to take a bodyguard with me of course, but I still went, I could slip my bodyguard later. I sat and waited, I looked at everyone coming and going, I looked around, I walked around but couldn’t find him, I didn’t see him, and I got cold waiting, papa sent a few messages asking where I am, but finally after too much, I gave up, this was stupid, he’s not coming, there’s no one to come! I left back home…
